90s comics suffered from changes in how comic books were sold to distributors, sold to the public, who was buying and for what reasons, changing tastes, pricing issues, which consumers were targeted and "exploited", etc etc. A lot of those have pretty direct parallels to modern video games.

A fake magazine cover (inspired by Vogue) "Babylon Rogue", depicting Honey the Cat punching down a wall.

Other than dates, it also says "Slip-Around Fashion, how Honey broke into the industry" (edited by Lyralamb)

Here's a pre-visualisation video for SNES Maximum Carnage, created by animator Alan Moult ( Software Creations ). He made this video for the game programmers to demostrate how the animations were supposed to work in the game. Thank you to Alan for keeping hold of the video and allowing me to share.

I finally get to play Mutant Rampage: Bodyslam. The game has not one, not two, but THREE defeat cutscenes on each levels, for each continues you lose. I'm astounded at the amount of effort very few people got to see.

Obsessed with the new Rugrats retro game collection having to black out so much of the games manuals to avoid mentioning the consoles they originally released on that they end up looking like the Epstein Files

A screenshot from Rugrats: Retro Rewind Collection, showing the manual for Rugrats Studio Tour in its museum mode. Large amounts of the page have been censored to cover up any mention of the PlayStation 1 and any screens that I guess are no longer in the new collection.

A scan of the PS1 manual for Rugrats Studio Tour, showing the part that was blacked out at the bottom was for saving and loading the game.

There's a 900 page ResetEra thread about people being offended by sexualization in games. At one point someone brought up a trailer for Hades 2 that starts with the character topless and everyone was like "that's different it's not sexualized at all!" People are real weird about this stuff!

The year is 1976. Brian Clemens starts his revival of a classic TV show with a storyline about neo-Nazis scheming to revive Hitler. The year is 1999. Brian Clemens closes his revival of a classic TV show with a storyline about neo-Nazis scheming to revive Hitler.

Saw somebody say that Nintendo needs to give people hope that there will be a be a new Mario and Zelda. The niche, obscure franchises…Mario and Zelda. Yeah. Some of yall are crackheads. Addicted to news and announcements. And I am being dead serious about this.

In praise of the final boss of Alpha Mission II / ASO II The concept of a shmup boss that fights by summoning other things. How it keeps drawing out its arm to psyche nervous players. The gruesome head conversion and damage detail. Just a great fucking video game boss #shmup #neogeo
